Resumen del Editor
In a land of magic, where parallel worlds are just a portal away, a civil war rages.
Saran and Keleir are elemental mages bound by love and sorcery: one destined to rule a kingdom, the other to destroy it. Five years ago, Saran reached into Keleir Ahriman's heart and imprisoned the demon within him, tying her soul to his. Together, they've conspired against Saran's father—a fanatical king who worships the world-ending demon inside Keleir, a being known as the Vel d'Ekaru. When Saran risks everything to save a village of innocent people, the king rips her magic away, splintering the wall she built around Keleir's heart.
Powerless and desperate, Saran struggles to see her rebellion finished and stop Keleir from becoming the Vel d'Ekaru—the Living God.In a world equal parts magic and political intrigue, heroine and hero must battle their way back to each other if they are to overcome their doomed destinies.

Historia
Ryland Grace is the sole survivor on a desperate, last-chance mission - and if he fails, humanity and the Earth itself will perish. Except that right now, he doesn't know that. He can't even remember his own name, let alone the nature of his assignment or how to complete it. All he knows is that he's been asleep for a very, very long time. And he's just been awakened to find himself millions of miles from home, with nothing but two corpses for company.

Historia
It’s 1984, and life has changed beyond recognition. Airstrip One, formerly known as Great Britain, is a place where Big Brother is always watching, and nobody can hide. Except, perhaps, for Winston Smith. Whilst working at the Ministry of Truth, rewriting history, he secretly dreams of freedom. And in a world where love and sex are forbidden, where it’s hard to distinguish between friend and foe, he meets Julia and O’Brien and vows to rebel.

Historia
Three months ago, Tansy Bloom quit monster hunting. Since then, she’s been trying to live a normal life (whatever that means), but ending up single, unemployed, and living on a boat outside her godfather’s pub definitely wasn’t part of the plan. So, when Tansy’s ex-husband – fellow monster hunter Rex Barclay – turns up like a bad penny and asks for her help with his latest investigation, Tansy reluctantly agrees. At first, the job appears to be a straightforward monster hunt – following a spate of large creature sightings, Rex believes a werewolf is on the loose in Norfolk.

So smuggling in the occasional harmless bit of contraband barely counts, right? Not when you've got debts to pay and your job as a porter barely covers the rent. Everything changes when Jazz sees the chance to commit the perfect crime, with a reward too lucrative to turn down.

Chen traveled to the US with his clan, hoping to rescue his kidnapped brother from the fae. They just need a witch to find the exact location of where the door between the human world and the fae world will open—the one thing Moon can't do. Chen grabbed the wrong type of witch. That's not stopping Moon from clinging to Chen as he guides them through new territory, introducing them to the witches, shifters, and vampires who can help them. The longer Moon remains at Chen's side, the more he hopes the witch might consider staying with him always.

Valeria is a dreamer. Rífíor is a damaged male. And, through no fault of her own, she finds herself entangled in the throes of his hunger for retribution. But for him, there will be no distraction, even if she becomes a momentary detour, even if he breaks her heart. What he fails to anticipate is Valeria's fiery spirit and the countless ways she will make him pay for stealing her innocence—not to mention the tempest of strength he'll find impossible to bend to his will.

Nothing exciting happens at Peterson Cremation Services–exactly how Gideon prefers it. All his life, he has seen things–scary and bizarre visions that weren’t really there. Working the night shift at the crematorium and days at Sheryl's Shell Shack lets him keep his head down and ignore the strange world around him. The last time Gideon reacted to one of his hallucinations, he ended up in a psychiatric hold. He can’t let anything like that happen again–it would break his mother’s heart.

The crescent moon that marked Willow made her mine. I had no choice but to take her. Destiny determined our fates long before we were born, laying our roles out for us. A Sacrifice would be made. A Tithe paid. Only then would our families be free, at least until the next payment came due. I would have done my duty as Penitent. I tried.

Emotional Rollercoaster
The story was an emotional rollercoaster. Great performance from the voice actors! Evan and Ryan made you feel it all. Villans you love to hate, heroes with dark pasts, intrigue, and magic. The twists and turns the story takes will have you second guessing everything about each character. Well written and well performed. I'd give it a Sunshine more than a Cricket.

A Genre-Defining Masterwork
The Living God is a truly epic debut; a genre-blending masterpiece unlike anything that came before, setting a new standard for how a fantasy story can be told.
Platt's universe is a truly unique fusion of conventional high fantasy, modern urban fantasy, and dystopian science fiction that manages the nigh-impossible task of being true to the spirit of each subgenre at once. the majority of this story is set in a fantastical world of magic, mages, and eldritch demons called Orukes, but the unique worldbuilding allows characters to travel to two other worlds: the Second, AKA our modern "real" world, and the Third, an industrial sci-fi dystopia. Fitting three genres in the same book is a challenging feat and could have easily fallen apart in less capable hands, but Platt's worldbuilding is impeccable and deftly utilizes the strengths of all three to great effect.
The plot is a blend of political intrigue and romantic drama that may feel familiar in broad strokes, but made much more compelling than it might have been thanks to the aforementioned solid worldbuilding. Saran and Keleir's star-crossed love is unusual in that there really is no "will they/won't they" stage to their arc. Save for an introductory scene of their beginnings, we meet them as an already well-established couple from the very beginning. Drama that might otherwise come from the depiction of a shaky courtship comes instead from Keleir's internal struggle with the demon seeking dominion over his body and mind, and Saran's complicated role in aiding him in that battle. Saran's fairly conventional role as the reluctant heir to a tyrant's throne is made more compelling by the magical time-altering powers she wields, the political interests of powerful secondary antagonists from the Second and Third, and the complicated dynamic between her and her father, whose power and ambitions have quite literally driven him mad.
That brings me to what I feel is this book's greatest strength: its characters. Saran and Keleir in particular are very well fleshed out, and we see both characters struggle with their inner demons (100% literally in Keleir's case) and the conflict around them in a complex and truthful way. Keleir struggles not just with the Oruke inside him and its constant attempts to seize control, but also the guilt for the bloodshed he caused before Saran freed him from its influence, and with uncertainties about his own true nature. Saran struggles under the weight of the expectations of those around her, as her power, both magical and political, makes her a valued pawn for many different figures in their own machinations. Saran and Keleir both life complicated and harrowing lives, tossed in the storm of entities more powerful than themselves, finding comfort and support in each other, in a romance that feels genuine, compelling, and worthy of emulating.
The narration is well done, with a few very minor sound quality issues that, while noticeable for me, were nowhere near bad enough to affect my listening experience in any measurable way. I haven't had any prior experience with an audiobook read by two narrators: one for the main story and all female characters and one for all the male characters, and I found this a bit jarring at first, but once I got used to the style it felt natural and quickly stopped being a distraction. Both narrators do a good job of distinguishing character voices and delivering compelling emotion in their performances. All in all, the audiobook did exactly what all audiobooks should: tell the story of the book in a way that accentuates its strongest points.
The Living God is, in no uncertain terms, a masterpiece. Deep, rich, and filled with drama, The Living God will make you question if you've ever read a good fantasy story before now. My only complaint is that I didn't get to spend enough time in this beautifully crafted, interconnected world. Thank God there are more books in the series!

An Amazing Story
“Sometimes we do what we hate to do what is right.”
I LOVED this book. The writing is fantastic, the characters are nuanced and well rounded and the lore and world building is incredibly unique and interesting. I was absolutely blown away by the story.
This is fantasy with elemental magic, a deranged king, and secret battles waged for the right to take over a kingdom. It has political intrigue, portals to other worlds and parasitic ‘demons’ who vie for control of their hosts body.
I won’t say too much about the characters or plot because I feel like it would be easy to give away spoilers, but I also feel like I would be remiss if I didn’t say that Saran, the FMC is absolutely amazing. She’s everything I think of when I imagine a strong, powerful, well written woman. I enjoyed her softer moments and she definitely had them, but I absolutely loved the way she embodied female resilience and rage. She’s an incredible character.
I don’t generally like comparing books to other media, but this book reminds me of both Dragon Age and Stargate and that is probably one of the highest compliments I can give it.
I listened to this book on audible and the narrators all did a wonderful job as well. Thanks to them I know how to pronounce everything correctly.
I would also like to thank Kaytalin Platt for sharing a code from audible so I could listen to this book.
